Alright, let's get this underway. Ice Beam for some decent damage, then Discharge some energy hoping to paralyze. Finish off with another Ice Beam. If she tries to Protect use Conversion 2 if you have already been hit by a Dragon-type attack or Agility if you haven't.

Ice Beam ~ Discharge ~ Ice Beam
IF Protect then Conversion 2 if hit by Dragon attack or Agility if not.

If the second Sky Attack flinches, use Sky Attack instead of Roost.

Dragon Rush => Earthquake => Earthquake

Also, I forgot to add that you had a +1 Attack boost thanks to Download, but I'd say it didn't really make a difference. I'll edit it in to this for what it's worth.

Bad luck Xav. You get 1 TC, 1 BP and 2 HC, and you can challenge again in a week!

Also, on an unrelated note, many of your conditional commands were illegal, because you can only have a substitute for one particular move or one particular chance-based outcome, so something like "IF Sky Attack or Dragon Rush is used use Protect, but not twice in a row" is illegal because it depends on two moves and a chance from last action. Check the Battle Tower thread for the exact rules, because they are explained much more clearly there. Better luck next time though!
 
Okay, thanks for reffing. I should have Magnet Rised and stalled for energy but I shall return to challenge the hall once I have improved by battling/team.
